I played all the games.
Fun little game! I included it in my XanderJam 3 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)
This is a gorgeous game. Loved the flashy special effects! I like the player object grew as it collected minerals, it added to the challenge. All the artwork was top notch. Sounds and music were great also. Good job!
Very good visuals, easily the best in the jame. Sound is also solid. The gameplay is simple and works (although it's just a bit too floaty). Overall, great job!
Great artwork! Gameplay was good and juicy, maybe a bit annoying clicking with mouse to shoot, but really good game
Absolutely awesome art and animation. In term of gameplay it's good but it miss the theme a bit i found. It's more getting fatty than evolve. I think that if you change of color and of type of shoot from shard 10 and shard 15 you would have been better on this point. Also a small thing but as we don't know what kind of asteroid give shards we don't try to put ourself in danger to get them so we play dady way no risk small amount at a time but finnaly get to the end. The same with the shard that stay in place once they spawn. If you make them go to the left it will put some kind of emergency feeling and ask to player to take more risk. So it will be more exciting to go to the end of the game. By the way the end visual effect and pixel art is gorgeous.
Thanks you for the detailed review, will surely consider what you said, so I can progress more in this Industry! Thanks you so much once more :D
honestly your game is one of the best one of the GameJam.
You are welcome. If you got a bit of time i would apreciate to get your feedback on my proposal. : https://itch.io/jam/xanderjam-3-spring-jam/rate/989211
Beautifully presented game, really liked the juicy effects, intro and end. I would suggest allowing the player to use space to shoot as the mouse wasn't really needed. And perhaps some upgrades to the gun as you progress for a bit more variety. Great job overall.
Glad you enjoyed the game! I'll be honest with you I just found out today my mouse double clicks by itself, after playing my game a couple more time, will really change the controls for this hahaha.
this was quite fun! sad to see it was only that one level, but its cool that you plan to develop further! love the music and the VFX btw. really clean
Thank you so much! Will improve on it more.
Seems ages since I last flew through a galaxy zapping portions of uncooked chicken,
.. good job BT :)
Thank You!
A nice space-shooter with slippery (but satisfying) controls.
Well done :]
Glad you loved the game and it's movement, really thought about it a lot having less deceleration to have the "Space" feels, but will still adjust it a bit. Thanks Again!!
THE MOST BEAUTIFUL GAME IN THE GAME JAM, that´s for sure, the gameplay was also amazing, due to the fantastic low friction, it really felt like being in space, and the fact that by having to collect the green objects the player has to move, and therefore are forced to avoid secure points, which is FANTSATIC. Amazing job with this project, nice.
Wow graphics on here are incredible. The polish on the main menu alone looks like a high end mobile release. The gameplay was a bit tedious and went on for just a bit too long, but it was still very beautiful. I think lowering the acceleration on the character would really do wonders here.
Thank you so much, it means a lot for me! Will adjust the movements a bit, it's too "slippery" after all. Will add a better story as well hehehe.
Looks amazing but controls are sloppy
looks really pretty. i found that i was going too far up and down on the Y axis, though.
looks pretty and plays well but that's about all. wish there was more
